Walt Whitman · Leaves of Grass

Poem 172 of 382 · Drum-Taps

World Take Good Notice

— ✻ —

World take good notice, silver stars fading,
Milky hue ript, wet of white detaching,
Coals thirty-eight, baleful and burning,
Scarlet, significant, hands off warning,
Now and henceforth flaunt from these shores.
